my first choice has always been an aspirin, but most of my coworkers tell me I’m wrong and I should use ibuprofen first.

What’s your take?

    Ibuprofen if I’m at work, but at home I usually take a short nap and have some coffee after, which works better for me.

      If it’s early and I’m under caffeinated, then I drink more coffee. If that doesn’t help or apply, then I assume I’m dehydrated and drink water. If that doesn’t help I try to take a nap. Usually by the time I run down the checklist it’s close enough to bedtime that I just turn in early. If none of that helps and/or I have stuff to do, then I reach for ibuprofen just because we are more likely to have that on hand than Tylenol.
